Default "Quote" issue

I've got some issues related to quoting.

One is, if I highlight a chunk of text, and click the quote icon, nothing happens. This was a problem some time ago but then seemed to be working for awhile.

Also, when I quote someone in a forum post, sometimes the quote is not there. For example, two of us in the Pond found Rainsong's posts invisible when quoted but it worked for one. I could quote others with no problem.



And lastly, I noticed last night when I previewed one of my posts that the text of my post was in the box of "how it looks" but the workable text area? That was blank! My post was all gone. (I copied it from the top half so I wouldn't have to retype it.)

This is breaking my brain
You're a Chrome user, correct?

Yes, Chrome. And I've been using a mac since November. An old laptop. So some of us have issues and some don't. lol

I have experienced the last issue that Kathy mentions several times over the last couple of months. I've been reluctant to use Preview unless I really need to because it took several times of this happening before I even thought of copying and pasting from the preview back into the text entry box .

Chrome is soooo quirky. Let me pass this along. We have a horridly short deadline on a big project so I'm not sure how quickly we can work this in, but I'll try!

Okay - I cannot reproduce this in Chrome.

the quote function works for me, as does the preview (screenshot attached).

The only thing I can reproduce is highlighting a chunk of text and quoting - it doesn't quote the highlighted portion, it just quotes the whole reply.

I've never used the quote like that though so I don't know if that was working for me before this or not.

What version are you in?

Oh geez, I don't know, it's my daughter's old laptop but I'm not using the laptop - I'm using a wireless keyboard and mouse and the husband hooked up a larger monitor so I could actually SEE it.

The laptop is closed up and under the desk on the keyboard tray behind the keyboard, somehow magicallly hooked up. Downside, no sound, printer and scanner not hooked up.

Hoping for new computer soon, so don't worry about me. Maybe it'll all be fine then.

Also - the quote function worked sometimes but not always. That is, in whether or not the text quoted was there or not.

Which is really weird.

Hey Kathy - I've switched to Chrome because I was having to kill Firefox several times an hour (horrid memory bloat) and I'm seeing all sorts of issues - remember when this happened before?) - so I've documented all of them and we will work on them.
